Does the EVGA Z370FTW or Classified support the Intel i7-8086k Out of the box, with a BIOS update, or not at all?

    There should be out of the box support for that CPU. No issues out of the box with the 8086 and my Classified K.

    ...an untrammeled flow of words in an open forum.

    Thank you Ray. I looked at the support list and it was not listed. Not may people talking about that CPU on the forums either.
    And I did not want to swap around my 8600k to do a bios update, less chance for something to go wrong, and use up my TIM.
    Thanks again for the fast response.

    I love my EVGA motherboards, but EVGA has the worst CPU support listing for their motherboards of any manufacturer that I have seen. TBH, it's freaking terrible.

    EVGA Motherboards are probably most reliable on market and very well build.
    Their build is equal to high end GIGABYTE, ASRock. Only ASUS lead with their insane options in BIOS and ASUS High end class is really something special. But in my country people complain a lot about mid and low class of ASUS motherboards because quality is not on same level as price, and you need to pay 400+ for real ASUS. Lower price you start to see saving costs. 
    They need to build same BIOS and that's good thing they share but I don't want to pay any more more than 350$ for motherboard once in 5 years.
    I like watercooling hobby and now I understand why some people rather keep 2-3 years old platform and upgrade after 4-5 years, than every 2 years to buy new CPU-Mobo-RAM and install AIO system.

    id agree with reliable... and very well build... but lately.. especially the z370 lineup there has been an issue on lack of vdroop functionality from evga, in short your only presented with ON or OFF... while other board manufacturer you can fine tune it :(  i so love my z370 classified K... but im sad about the vdroop

    The z370FTW came with BIOS 1.8 and the 8086k fired up right away with no issues. win10pro OS
